18 April 2008; Arlington, Virginia:

Solari President Rich Maggiani has been elected as Director-at-Large for the Board of Directors of the international Society for Technical Communication. This 14-person board directs the vision for the Society.

Maggiani’s campaign platform centered around his desire to make STC the global leader in the field of technical communication and to strengthen the profession’s impact in corporate strategic planning. In an article all STC members, Maggiani stated:

“STC needs Board members who are experienced in the field, who understand our profession and the contribution we make to the world, who recognize the role that STC plays in representing and promoting our profession, who understand the services STC must provide for our membership, and how STC must be the global leader for us. This is my vision for STC and one that I will arduously pursue as your Director-at-Large.”
